it has been 20 days since i last blogged!! actually hav lots of things which i would like to remember in this 3 weeks.. this is goin to be a long post.

13/8

friday 13, supposedly an unlucky day.. had our history test and proceeded on to having cip at an old folks home or sumthing. we took a bus dere and rehearsed the songs we were going to sing to them.. we reached dere and were welcomed by a group of touch centre ppl. dey were quite friendly so i just slightly smiled and waved to the guy at the door who was waving frantically at us (: after tt our class was splitted up and my group was first led by the in-charge to a room full of old men. most were physically disabled, on wheelchairs, etc. dey cant relli move and respond to us.. so in the end we were sort of trying to get them understand wad we were wanting them to do wif us- the froggie song. dey were supposed to follow us with the hand movements and sings along. but it was relli quite impossible for them. and quite sad to see them not able to move their hands and stretch their fingers like us. some cant even lift up their hands..

so after many attempts, we managed to get some to just roughly follow us. and there's this enthu uncle who relli can dance! he was shaking here shaking there. very interesting guy. but the rest were juz motionless. but cant blame them. wad do we expect them to do. soon after the song we did our best to entertain them. sang all our songs and we even shui ji ying bian. we sang national day songs, malay songs, chinese songs, any songs we can think of! and often they will clap along with us. we even danced as there were sharon and vanessa [modern dancers] dere. so i felt that it was overall quite meaningful.

very depressing to see these older generation so lonely and relli stuck in that place for the rest of their lives. if we didnt' come dat day, i tink it wld be just another day for them to sit at the corner of the room stoning or smth. at least mayb we managed to brighten up their day for some of them. mr han was dere as well. he was also very open and relli dance along with us too. im relli proud of 203, we relli did veri well dat day and u can relli see many of us really opening up to these old people and do our best to help them and make them smile. i wld also relli like to commend sharon. she's the true real one who give her utmost effort in leading the whole group and everything and make this cip so successful. although there are also many of the leaders in 203 involved in this cip to thank. but it was relli great. and not to forget, some really funny incidents dat happened. ahaaha. but i tink everyone relli had fun and were exhausted. i dont want to forget this day! =P

15/8

this day it was talent night and ny choir's performance at the esplanade with the alumni choir. some of us met up at city hall mrt and made our way to the esplanade at around 2pm. soon we arrived there took a few nice photos together at the poles and lion statues at esplanade. =.= after tt proceeded to the concert hall backstage and everything.. the huge lift up to our dressing/waiting room and left our things there b4 proceeding for our last rehearsal before our real performance on stage.

while on stage we were trying to get everything right.. position and sound. but there's this plump lady who's sort of those in-charge also. den was like so fierce and demanding dat we should faster get out of the stage and not waste so much time on the stage as the time is tight... her attitude relli qian bian. shld tell us nicely and at least let our conductor finish wad he has to say to us first wad. so everyone got relli pissed but just forget it and continued with the day and after rehearsing, we had our rushed dinner at 5pm and dashed back to the dressing room and the mad rush of changing came.. but sort of get xi guan of ppl stripping le.. some of us still stripped in the room itself with everyone ard although there's the toilet. [to save time mah]

we were the first item. so immediately after making up and getting ready we lined up at the backstage and a few of us were standing wth the alumni choir members, our xue jie. and the light there was dark blue making the place sort of luminous.. and our xue jies so funny. one of them pretended to be a vampire and made us luff till we were asked to shut up. and another one was making a funny face.. i tink dey were relli cute. haha and the alumni also very nice to us (: so after all the laugh, its our turn on the stage. erm i tink we shld hav sung not quite badly la.. so it was fine and everything gone well to the end of the performance when we had to wait for so long to get a few photographs of the entire ny family involved in the performance.

the kindergarten kids at the end of the performance were so playful. the boys ar were fighting on stage.. kicking and pushing.. i was standing beside them and dun even noe how to stop them. on stage somemore.. terrible.. although they were dressed so beautifully. so a number of us after dat took the transport provided by the schl back to schl and we forgot about the chinese dancers and chen lili lao shi! dey were left behind at the esplanade.. shld be some miscommunications between the teachers but anw i got home safely after tt by a fetch by my parents. tiring day but quite enjoyable cos of the singing during break time and everything we did together as a choir. =D

20/8

the cross country day! lols the schl gave us a half day break for lunch so tt we can make it for cross country at 3.30. was so looking forward to de end of schl and after some filming for the pe assignment, bought some snacks to eat and slacked in the classroom and purposely went to gek sharon with yueling by refusing to go to the com lab to help tania with the assignment =P very bad hor.. but anw in de end we still went to help in the com lab.. and it rained!!! tian zhu wo ye.. even the weather helped us.. so cross country was cancelled. yay!! haha.. i sure cant run.. havent ran for months le.. sure hav stitch and die in the middle of the run...

after finishing wad i had to do.. my mum took mi to fetch jun kai from scouts. we went to his schl, waited, managed to find his scounts group but without him, asked 2 of his friends at a corner of his whereabouts and dey said he did not go for scouts. so we were thinking he must have cheated my mum about him having scouts but he went elsewhere. we looked about for him. and couldnt find him. this left my mum so disappointed and angry with my brother. so we decided to see wad he's going to say when we ask him about his scouts.. after going to bp plaza for a while, we went home and he was already home. he mentioned a lot about being punished in the rain in scouts and everything and we thought he was lying to us, but we did not confront him. and later in the night, my parents asked him and he denied not having attended scouts.. should we believe him?

im finding it harder and more difficult to trust his words. he has let us down too many times. why must he become like that? he has made us utterly disappointed in him. ever since his psle results which was the first disappointment, he doesnt seem to care about anything except play. he just seem to be lost in his own world, always stoning and dreaming. he's always making my mum angry and we just dont understand wad he wants. cant he just study hard on his own and get some results for us to see. why cant he just try his best and let us recognize the results he hav earned from his efforts. he doesnt even try. he dont care. haiz. suan le.

21/8

in the morning 8am met in schl and take taxi with the students involved in this event and the teacher-in-charge to nanhua. it was the west zone math competition. actly i dont know anything about this event and was just absurdly put as replacement and suddenly i was told to meet them in schl today, and dat im representing the schl in this competition. so i just went. nanhua was relli big and beautiful. very new too. there were lots of different students from lots of schls. so we made our way to the hall and settled down b4 starting the paper. it was relli challenging. there were in total 50 qns and i haven even reach the 30th qn when the time is up. i left a lot of blanks too.. mind was in a whirl when it ended. seems to have exhausted my brain.

so there were refreshments, video presentation [which almost landed mi in dreamland], and finally prize presentation. ny didn't get any prizes at all. none of us made it to the top. so shi bai. but tchs were relli impressive. i tink all of the students dat represented the schl had a prize and dey clinched 4 positions out of the 5 in the special catogory. and overall top 2 team champions.. too pro. when teh whole thing was over, their hands were all wif trophies..

and in the evening i was at smu and watched the olympics. the table tennis match between s'pore's li jia wei and the north korean player. all my hopes were placed on li jia wei. and i was supporting her all the way.. she won the first match. second match lost. third and forth match thrashed the north korean wif one of the matches 11-0. i was so proud of her. and was watching the 5th match. so praying hard tt she will win. but she didn't and soon the north korean caught up. and the last match. i practically wasnt breathing and my heart was in my mouth.. i so much wanted li jia wei to win. 44 years. s'pore havent get any medals in the olympics for 44 years. the way the last match went was trying to kill me. one wld gain a point and the other would catch up again. and den 9-9. but in the end the north korean won. it was so disappointing. but i know li jia wei tried her best. but i still couldnt stand it and cried. so stupid of mi. actly cried over this. but it've been a long time since i cried for a more valid reason. haiz. but just hope that li jia wei can at least clinch the 3rd position. :)

LI JIA WEI! JIA YOU! MUST WIN! =)

yah dat should be all. i shall update soon if i can. anw how mani days are there left to eoy?? 40 days. around a month. :( everyone study hard ba.. JIA YOU! nitezz..

A girl and a boy were on a motorcycle, speeding through the night. They loved each other a lot.. Girl: "slow down a little.. I'm scared.." Boy: "No, it's so fun.." Girl: "please..it's so scary.." Boy: "Then say that you love me.." Girl: "Fine..I love you..can you slow down now?" Boy: "Give me a big hug.." The girl gave him a big hug. Girl: "Now can you slow down?" Boy: "Can you take off my helmet and put it on? It's uncomfortable and it's bothering me while i drive."

The next day, there was a story in the newspaper. A motorcycle had crashed into a building because its brakes were broken. There were two people on the motorcycle, of which one died, and the other had survived... The guy knew that the brakes were broken. He didn't want to let the girl know, because he knew that the girl would have gotten scared. Instead, he was told the last time that she loved him, got a hug from her, put his helmet on her so that she can live, and die himself...
